Those 20 million people who sat by were democrats. But sitting by while facism rises is kinda your thing, isn’t it? Too bad you can’t hand-wring your way into a better union, huh?

There is no harm reduction. Kamala didn’t support a cease fire, and she refused to stop the flow of weapons or support. The choices were killing kids fast, or killing them slowly. You don’t get to act self righteous, like there’s a more moral choice there.

Democrats are baby killers.

You’re right, that’s not his name.

No, surely it’s more special interest and foreign funding. If they had gotten just a bit more money from AIPAC, they could have won!

If there were 20 million leftists, you wouldn’t be able to laugh at us every election. This is your fault, whether you want to admit it or not. Democrats stayed home in record numbers, and failed the nation.

The thing is, leftists are armed. Liberals are not. It’s not us who has to worry about nazis coming. We’re gonna look out for our queer and trans brothers and sisters, but you guys? You can have a front row seat to Gaetz weaponizing the DOJ and taking revenge on you for defying Trump. It’s gonna be a rough four years for you.

Twenty million people includes a majority of democrats. You did this to yourselves, and you did it to everyone else too. You’re scum, you’ve probably destroyed democracy, and when the republicans start their pogroms, I’m not going to shed tears for liberals. You got us into this mess, so you can do the dying.

There isn’t 20 million pro-Palestinian people in the US. You liberals don’t want to admit it, but it was YOU who stayed home on Election Day. You made all that fuss about us needing to elect your YASS QUEEN SLAY corporate-funded DEI “hashtag ally” plutocrat, then didn’t even have the decency to get off your fat fucking asses, and skip brunch and your wine break for one fucking day to actually do your civic duty and vote.

I meant to say, if a game doesn’t require dependencies, adding it through Steam is easier. You can still do that if it does, but installing dependencies like .NET is slightly easier with Lutris or Bottles.

It’s never been difficult for me to run pirated games on Linux. Occasionally you’ll get a game that needs something like the .NET framework, which increases the install time by about another thirty seconds or so.

Actually, it often is that easy. If the game isn’t a repack, you can usually add the EXE to Steam and launch. If you need dependencies, then you can take the extra minute or two to add it to Lutris or Bottles.

I didn’t know about the transphobia, thanks for telling me.

It’s was grabbing the very first file that matched the name, is what. That’s one of the things you will be configuring for the Trash guides. I prefer the best quality possible, since I’m downloading to a NAS. But if you’re downloading to a desktop, they also tell you how to search for media that’s of a reasonable size. For 1080p, suspect you’ll be grabbing high-quality files that are 15-20gb for a movie.

I’m more a fan of Hyprland myself, but i3 is a great and mature WM. Currently I use KDE, at least until I bother to get an AMD GPU so I can switch to using Hyprland and not have to watch Obsidian and Discord fight with Wayland constantly.

If the Servarr apps are being janky, you may want to check out the Trash guides for each app. The default configuration ends up fetching a lot of bad releases, because it doesn’t have many criteria to meet for a download to match.

It’ll take you an hour or so to copy the configs you want, but it’s worth it.

I use a NAS running the Unraid OS, with a Docker setup using the Servarr apps to find and fetch media using SABnzbd and qBitorrent to download from Usenet and private trackers. It pipes movies, TV shows, and music into my Jellyfin library, which has all the features of Plex, but is free. I don’t believe in telling corporations what shows I’m pirating. Bazarr automatically fetches appropriate subtitles for everything. I have the Servarr apps set up to fetch the best quality using the Trash guides.

For visual media discovery, I use Jellyseerr, which allows me to easily find new shows and movies, and allows my family and friends to request shows to be downloaded. Jellyfin automatically cleans up watched media so that it doesn’t take up space after it’s been watched.

For audiobooks, everything is fetched from private trackers, specifically the mouse site, and automatically piped into Audiobookshelf, to it can be streamed to friends and family. Ebooks get likewise sent to a Kavita server, so they can be quickly sent via email to physical readers as desired by users.

And of course, all ebooks and audiobooks are seeded in perpetuity, meaning I get a lot of points on the tracker from seeding hundreds of torrents. I use those points to buy free leech tokens, so I don’t have to worry about ratio. Other types of torrents are usually seeded until they are at 1.5 ratio, then they are deleted.

Video games I download are automatically synced to all gaming PCs on my network via Syncthing, so they can be installed by everyone. Save games for each person are also backed up to the NAS and to any other PCs or portables used for that game by that person.

All this is protected behind an obscure domain proxied by Cloudflare and protected by an LDAP server that authenticates and validates access for each user to the services they are allowed to use. Torrents and Usenet media are downloaded to the NAS using a bound VPN located in a country that doesn’t cooperate with Western governments. Everything is streamed to users on a fiber connection.

I’m going to keep pushing Jellyfin over Plex anytime someone posts something that mentions it, as it is the obviously superior choice. I don’t care if you disagree.

You have two choices. Block me and ignore it, or fuck off. I don’t care which you choose, because I’ll quickly forget you even exist unless you bother replying, but you don’t have any power to make me do otherwise. So you might as well save yourself the trouble.

Corpo bootlicking scum.

Jellyfin has every feature Ples does, and more, since those features are free.

Oh man, I would love to see this happen. Republicans in Texas would be frothing at the mouth to see California gone, right up until they had to start paying for all the other republican states that can’t manage to support themselves.

Any book that’s been banned is going to be freely available many places online, and if the government could actually ban things and have them disappear, piracy wouldn’t exist. I would look for queer literature on private trackers like MAM, and seed those files if you’re concerned. Although usually they have dozens or hundreds of seeders, so they’re not in any danger.

No matter what happens, in four years Trump will be gone, and queer literature will still remain. And piracy will be as strong as ever.
